Also if someone can share their thoughts on this - Will asking for an early decision affect my chances?
If you have genuine reasons for asking, it wont hurt your chances.

Were both your interviewers from backgrounds similar to yours?
No actually both were from a different background. I am in Mining/OEM space and one of them was an entrepreneur and the other one was in TMT Consulting. The only similarity was the geography i.e. both of them were based out of India.

Thanks for sharing. Both of mine are also not from similar professional backgrounds as mine. One is from India and one is an Indian based in Singapore

Yes, you can apply for upto 5 scholarships for which you are eligible (only after selection into the interview rounds). Each scholarship has a few essays ranging from 250 to 400 words so each one is itself a huge time commitment.­

I am not sure my friend but I think it should ideally be about the substance. Since none of the recommender will have the time to write a 500 word essay for each question, I would think it should ideally be around 200-300 words, but then again its about the content with anecdotes than the word limit.
Yes, I agree with that. Thank you. Generally speaking, I have heard from adm consultants to stick to around 1500 words in total, including all the 6 questions

Anyone has any ideas when to expect admit calls/rejections for R1 post interviews? Generally when do they start coming in or is it random?
